Serotonin sendromu

Serotonin sendromu periferde ve santral sinir sisteminde bulunan serotonin (5-hidroksi triptamin; 5-HT) reseptörlerinin aşırı uyarılması sonucu gelişir. Klinik bulgular mental durum değişiklikleri, otonomik disfonksiyon ve nöromusküler uyarılmadan oluşan bir triadı içerir. Serotonerjik etkili bir veya daha fazla ilacın bir arada kullanılması bu sendroma yol açar. Serotonin sendromu anestezide kullanılan meperidin, fentanil ve tramadol gibi ilaçlarla daha karmaşık bir hale gelebilir. Olguların büyük bir kısmı hipertermi ve otonomik disfonksiyonu önleyici destek ve semptomatik tedavi ile düzelirken, ağır olgularda yoğun bakım ve mekanik ventilasyon gereksinimi söz konusudur.

Serotonin syndrome

Serotonin syndrome results from excessive activation of serotonin (5- hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) receptors peripherial and central nervous system. The clinical manifestations are a triad of altered mental status, otonomic dysfunction and neuromuscular exitability. The syndrome caused by the administration of one or more drugs having serotonergic activity. Serotonin syndrome may complicate the administration of drugs used in anesthetic practice, including meperidine, fentanyl and tramadol. Although the majority of cases improve with symptomatic and supportive care to treat hypertermia and autonomic dysfunction, severe cases need intensive care and require mechanical ventilation.
